During the summer, every month after the full moon, about 9 o'clock a magnificent spectacle of green lights comming from the water takes place all over the island. These are
The Bermuda glow worms (Odontosyllis enopla) which use bioluminescence to attract mates. Tonight I went there with Mara and other girls, interns in BIOS to see that, and it was marvelous!

We were inspired by the green lights so we decided to do something with that (instead of mating, hahaha =)
